  • Hi

    that article was written before XG had linked NAT available.

    All traffic needs to pass through the XG. Your proxy rule needs to be at the top of your rule list. Your NAT rule also needs to be at the top of your NAT list.

    Change your any zone to LAN, change your source network to be the network of the LAN not a specific IP address.
